Aron (@arondeparon) here, founder of Gistreader.com.
I was an avid user of Google Reader back in the day, but for some reason, I silently rolled over when they decided to kill it and never looked at RSS again.
Lately, I am getting more and more frustrated by the fact that most of the content that I consume is being pushed at me by some kind of algorithm. I wanted more control over this process, so decided to build GistReader.
In its basic form, GistReader is an RSS reader that aims to make your reading experience as fast and pleasant as possible. In addition to that, it uses AI to automatically create summaries of your articles and uses text-to-speech to optionally read a condensed version of an article to you out loud.
GistReader is my first-ever product launch, so as you might expect, I'm pretty nervous about that, especially when it comes to sharing it on HN :)
Please, feel free to let me know what you think. It's all very early-days (lots of things I want to fix/improve/build) and the only way I can improve is by getting solid feedback from people that might actually use it.
Thanks!
